Eating inside HMart

Here you are, reading mmm-yoso!!!, a blog about food, again. Welcome.  Kirk is enjoying some time off and Cathy is writing.  

We've had HMart in San Diego since 2012. There are only a few 'food court' selections inside the store, unlike at the Super H Mart in Diamond Bar (mentioned in the middle of that post). IMG_3539There is one "Enter" and one "Exit" door.  To the right of the 'Enter" is a small kitchen, cooking and wrapping food for those who want to 'Grab and Go'. IMG_1654 There is a small seating area (including two corner chairs which are useless).  The kitchen prepared meals are pictured above the 'By the Pound' items.  ($8.50/lb)(Hot or Cold)
IMG_1654The hot items are plentiful, protein based (other than rice) and kept fresh, since the cooking area is three steps behind the trays.
IMG_1654The cold area has a great selection, especially if you are thinking about buying something you've seen pre-packed in the refrigerated area of the store.  There's also sliced sushi roll pieces, pork and tofu if you want cold protein.
Fullsizeoutput_6e6We grabbed a few items on this visit before beginning to shop.  Cold items were kimchi, seaweed salad and marinated mushrooms.  All were good (nice flavor/mild heat of kimchi) and complimentary to the hot items- fried squid, fried head-on shrimp and breaded, fried pork in a sweet sauce. Total for these two boxes was $6.  The item on the bottom right was just packed (still warm) and placed in the open refrigerated area.
IMG_1654 Pan fried crab cake ($3.50).  Fresh vegetables, plenty of crab, crispy fry. A good meal on its own.

There's a dispenser of hot water, cups, utensils and condiments in the eating area, so you can have a decent meal.
